up.
Harry had everything ready and was waiting to go. Anticipation was getting the better of him while he sat on the stairs. He started to ponder if they'd make it or if there would be another episode with the chimney. Harry was hoping not, he didn't want to upset any of the Dursleys.
Just then Dudley came barbering his large butt down the staircase.
"Going to your magic school, are we?" Dudley asked with his head held high pointing at Harry's old trunk.
" Yes Dudley," Harry answered not moving a muscle.
" Well, I hope something bad happens while you're there," Dudley chuckled.
" Dudley, You do know the Weasley's are coming to pick me up, right? Do you remembered last time they picked me up? I reckon, your tongue did not fit your mouth." Harry needed not to say more. Dudley's eyes sank in fear and he appeared to be nervous, a little shaky and sweaty. He ran into the kitchen, his favorite comfort spot. Harry shook his head and grinned.
It was a quarter passed 12 when the house started to rumble. Harry was confused for a second then realized it was his bestfriend arriving to pick him up. Harry raised from the stairs and looked out the front door.
"Ohmigoodness," he gapsed. There was something he thought he'd never see.
" Hey Harry we got a new vehicle!" Ron shouted from the drivers seat. Yes, Ron Weasley was driving. And the vehicle, it was, well, HUGE. Harry hadn't seen any other like it. Ron and Bill had climbed down from the enormous ... thing.
" It's an American car, I think, " Ron said in a slow thinking look. " anyway, how are you?"
" I'm just great,"
" Glad, Everyone is waiting for you back at the house, are you ready to go?" Bill asked Impatiently. He looked as though Ron had been driving fast and carelessly.
Harry ran back into the house to say good-bye to his 'family'.
"Good-bye Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia," Harry yelled while dragging his trunk outside. Bill lunged into the back of the, what Harry now thought was a jeep.
He ran back inside, upstairs and into his bedroom to get Hedwig who looked very excited.
"C'mon girl, Let's go," he said in a high pitched voice. "Good-bye Dudley!" Harry yelled again. He could hear his relatives give a faint good-bye as Harry ran out the door.
Harry climbed into what now seemed like a semi. Before he even buckled up Ron stepped on the gas pedal. " Bloody 'ell!" Harry shouted as Hedwig squawked loudly in distress.
"Ron...," Ron must not have heard Bill. "RON...," The engine was going so fast that Harry could barely hear Bill. "RONALD WEASLEY!" Ron looked over at Bill. Bill was usually a cool, hang loose kind of guy but not when his 15 year old brother was going 48 kph
"What Bill?" Ron said in aggravation.
"SLOW DOWN! You're going to git us a ticket. We're in the Muggle world, remember?! We can pay for things like that!" Bill yelled then forced into a regular voice as Ron slowed down.
"Thanks Bill," Harry sighed
About ten minutes later, they were out of muggle's vision range and were now flying higher than Harry and Ron had ever been, arriving into the Weasley's drive way.
Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were waiting at the front door.
"HELLO HARRY! So nice to see you sweetie!" Mrs. Weasley greeted Harry with open arms and kisses. " Ron, you look like a mess!"
"He should mother, he drove us here in less than 15 minutes…" Bill told on his brother, this was very unusual for Bill, Harry thought.
Ron elbowed Bill in the side. " I'm sorry mother I was just excited to get here so everyone could see Harry," Ron tried to do his best in apologizing.
"All right, all right everyone inside and wash up! Arthur, Please take Harry's items upstairs in Ron's room," Mrs. Weasley Ordered.
The boys marched into the house where they were greeted by even more Weasleys. Fred and George were practical jokers (they were the ones that made Dudley's tongue an abnormal size), they patted Harry on the back
"Welcome home chap," They said in unison. Harry just shook his head. This was like his home, in a sort of way.
Hermione bonded across the living room and jumped into Harry's arms. Ginny followed into the hug.
"Hey, you guys, how have you been?" Harry asked with a smile. Hermione had grown a couple of inches. Her Brown hair straighten out but she still had the same bossy voice, Harry didn't think she changed much. Ginny was now as tall as Hermione and wasn't as quite.
"Sorry Percy, is in his room, working as usual but, him and Penelope are planning on getting engaged," Ginny giggled.
The week went by fairly fast and on August 31 all the Hogwart students were excited about going to the Hogwart's Express tomorrow. There week had been filled with De-gnoming the garden (Crookshanks had caught one), Buying thier books and new robes at Diagon Alley, and playing backyard Quidditch.
On their last night Mrs. Weasley cooked the most splendid dinner with steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, broccoli and cheese, chocolate cheesecake and home made butterbeer. It was all very tasty and by the end of the night everyone was lying on the floor with a full tummy.
The next morning came all too soon in Harry's point of view. He was ready to go to school but, really enjoyed it at the Weasley's house. After a small breakfast they made their journey to platform nine-and-three- quarters.
" Now remember, just run towards it. And loosen up!" Percy directed the 6 students like they had never done it before.
Just at that moment Harry spotted some older kids with carts looking around. They looked like Hogwarts students, only lost.
"Blimey, we know Percy!" Ginny yelled. Harry was taken back at this, he still wasn't used to Ginny being loud. Percy gave her a shocked look but, waved good-bye anyway.
Fred went first followed by George. Neither of them slammed into the wall but, went right through it like usual.
Harry heard a muggle tell the three lost older kids to 'stop asking rubbish questions.' This all sounded to familiar to Harry.
"All right Ron, now you go!" Mr. Weasley said with a wave. Ron galloped toward the wall between 9 and 10 and 'whoosh' he was in. Harry knew it was his turn now. He gave one look back at the three unusual kids.
"good-bye Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. Thanks for everything G'Bye Percy!" Harry stumbled at first remembering his second year where he and Ron ran right into the wall but, ended up with a bruises on their bums. He closed his eyes and when he opened them he was where we wanted to be, The Hogwart's Express.
Harry had everything ready and was waiting to go. Anticipation was getting the better of him while he sat on the stairs. He started to ponder if they'd make it or if there would be another episode with the chimney. Harry was hoping not, he didn't want to upset any of the Dursleys.
